It appears from LINK that EON has made some progress in reducing their carbon emissions per kw/h of electricity they produce, however the new link implies that they have done so mostly by aquiring nuclear power stations for their generating 'fleet'.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Alfred Tennyson', 'W')e are not now that strength which in old days
Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are;
One equal temper of heroic hearts,
Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.
